Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible—click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations—the older translations are further down the page (so you can read up from the bottom to trace the English translation history). The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible—please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

8:1-66 Solomon’s building activities climaxed with the Ark’s move to the newly erected Temple. The king offered both prayer (8:22-53) and words of praise and blessing (8:56-61) to dedicate the Temple for the Lord’s service. After the dedication, the assembled gathering enjoyed the great Festival of Shelters. The focus of the account is on Solomon praising God and blessing the people (8:12-61).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
it was in the heart of David my father
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was with heart_of Dāvid father_of,my to,build house for,name_of YHWH god_of Yisrael )
What David desired is spoken of as if it were an item in a container and the heart as if it were a container. Alternate translation: “David my father desired”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
for the name of Yahweh
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_was with heart_of Dāvid father_of,my to,build house for,name_of YHWH god_of Yisrael )
The word “name” is a metonym for the person, and “for the name” refers to worshiping the person. See how you translated similar words in [1 Kings 3:2](../03/02.md). Alternate translation: “in which people would worship Yahweh”
